Stoker was found when prison officer Norman Stubbs brought Mr Nuamah back from recreation. Staff and paramedics tried to revive him, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Stephanie White, a prison nurse, said Stoker’s medical notes described him as “disorientated” when he arrived at the jail. The notes also said that Stoker displayed “feelings of guilt” and had told staff that “he wanted to be strangled like he deserved”.
